It's not a joke I finally blogged.....

So I have tried and tried to blog but I always get interrupted or think I will get back to it. Well, I haven't. It's been two months since I wrote last. Here is an update.
Time has gone by so fast I can't believe I have a 2 month old baby. JA is doing wonderful. She is holding her head up, sleeps really good at night, loves her swing and bouncy chair. She experienced her Halloween, thanksgiving, and her very first black Friday. She is a joy in our lives and everyone loves her so much. She is her own kind of kid. She looks a lot like my baby pictures. But, Brett's mom says she looks a lot like him. Most of the time she is just herself. She is growing like crazy. She is bigger than both JB & MK were at 2 months. I can see why. She is constantly eating and she does spit up. But I love her and I am grateful for her in my life.
MK has grown up since JA was born. She is no longer a baby. She is a toddler. She has a very good vocabulary. She went from hardly talking to talking your leg off. The best is when she quotes Brett or I. She loves playing with dolls, stuffed animals, and with all her little people. She is able to play by herself and keep herself entertained. She is always sticking up for her older brother when Dad or Papa are teasing him. "no papa, that my brofer be nice." "dad, you be nice, that my brofer." I love it. She does know how to push JB's buttons she can tease him or mimic him it makes him so upset. She loves baby gacica(Jessica). She is always wondering where she is, wants to hold her, and is right there when I am nursing. she will even go and get her baby and pretend to nurse her babies. I love her. We are starting to potty train we will see how that goes. She is always singing and dancing. I love her stubbornness (sometimes), and the joy she brings to us.
JB.... Well he is loving school. He is doing well. His teacher is very pleased with how well he is doing. He got all "S" (satisfactory) on his report card. He even got some 2's on things that other kids were only getting 1's on.. Brett, says he is a sponge. He absorbs everything. I love teaching him. He sucks it up so much. He likes to cry Wolf at school sometimes. His teacher says he most love home. We are working on telling the truth. He is interested in Lego's, trains, and all the computer stuff. He is very protective of his little sisters. He is my caring and loving boy. WE are working on reading, writing, and math. We are also working on trying not to be scared of everything. but I know how he feels I was the exact same way when I was a kid and even sometimes now. I try not to be too hard on him. I feel bad because I feel like I was always after him or trying to get him to do something. If he doesn't do it then he is in trouble. I hate it. I am always looking for new ways or ideas to get him to listen and help. Ahhhhh that's a different blog.
Brett, just took a coding test on Sat. it was 51/2 hours long. We hope he did well on it. If he did that will mean a raise and a different title at work. He is busy at school and I am glad that this semester is almost over. I miss him and so do the kids. JA loves her daddy. He was the only one that could get her to smile for a long time. MK loves him too. I think she would prefer to have him home with her. JB loves him to build legos and play games. Brett, is soo cute with the kids. HE will play with them, keep them busy and loves to tease them. I am so lucky to have him as a husband, father and friend. I love you Brett.
ME.... well what can I say. I have been a little blue lately. I hate winter just because its always dark and dreary. I have had a really hard time with this postpartum. I have struggled with nursing, and being tied down. I would get really frustrated with everything. I didn't want to feed JA. Then I started not wanting to see people or go anywhere. I did get some help and I am getting better. the nursing has gotten easier, and I love my kids don't get me wrong. Life with 3 kids is crazy. I am always doing something. I am always behind on everything in my life. I am hoping with the new year I can change and get a reality check.
There is always so much I want to write on my blog but then I wonder if I really should. What if I offend someone or they turn me into the child protection services. I would love to tell you how I really feel and what I am really thinking. But, if someone was reading what I wrote I would be in real trouble. ummmmm
October: Halloween, JB was batman, MK was a butterfly princess, and JA was a pumpkin princess. We went to Brett's sisters house it was a blast. Brett & MK went trick or treating all over their neighborhood. She had a blast. JB was too scared to go so he stayed with me.
November: Well, we didn't do much but Thanksgiving was a great time. We were with Brett's family. I went Black Friday shopping with my sister and her friends. I had to take JA with me. She did so well. I sat in a line at Walmart from 11:45 pm (Thursday night) until 5:00am (Friday) to get a gift for JB. I loved the shopping and I am almost done with all my SC shopping and I am glad to be ahead this year. I also got to spend time with my dad and learn a few things about him and my mom. It's interesting to hear both sides of the story. ( another blog) I loved getting to know my dad a little better. We also set up our Christmas before thanksgiving. I love having it up and teaching the kids about the true meaning. I decided to try to do a little project with them every few nights so they will have good memories about Christmas and we can have traditions.
December: Well, it's been a great month so far. we decorated gingerbread houses last night. the kids ate more of the candy and frosting than decorating. OH well. I enjoy watching and listening to them. I hope we continue having a great month. I hope I can remember to blog more.

Thanks for the updates! It feels like we haven't seen you guys forever. I didn't know you were struggling with nursing & post-partum. Please call if you need anything! Even if you just need a change of scenery, come on over. We're chaotic, but we're here.

Ah, postpartum. I hope having M over to play has helped relieve some of your stress...I feel it too sister-friend! :)
Have you considered starting a private or 'hidden' blog for just your own personal ramblings? I have one and it like it lots. I know who my readers are (and a few complete strangers who I don't care about!). I don't censor near as much as I do on my family blog.

You're doing great [unsinkable] Molly!
